Official Mad Men Collection at Banana Republic now available
We flagged it up some time back, but now it looks like the first items in the official Mad Men Collection are now available to buy online at Banana Republic.
The items have landed in the US store (which does international shipping), with clothing and accessories for both men and women designed by Janie Bryant, who designed the costumes for the TV show.
Some examples above and over the page. Above, you can see the lace tipped dress, with short sleeves, a draped neckline, a lace trim at neck and hem, invisible back zip and vented back hem. That sells for $150. The other is the lace dress, which has cap sleeves, a boat neckline and invisible back zip. $130 for that.
eBay watch: Austin Mini 1988 Mary Quant Designer Edition
There are a couple of these on eBay right now (you can see the other and cheaper one here), but we've opted for this Austin Mini Mary Quant Designer Edition because, quite simply, it looks a better car.
Both have been reconditioned though, so both worth a look if you are after one of these cars, which are certainly becoming more collectible as the years pass. This one, from 1988, has been significantly restored without affecting the original design, with parts and labour put at about £2,000. See the listing for a breakdown of upgrades.
Mileage is 70,500, condition is said to be 'excellent' and the Quant interior is intact. The bidding right now is £1,019. Lots of images on the listing page.

Limited edition Adidas x Star Wars Skywalker boots
Looks like Adidas is still persevering with its Star Wars range, although these Adidas x Star Wars Skywalker boots might have a little more appeal for movie die-hards than some of the range we've seen.
I'll be honest, I'm a passing rather than an obsessive Star Wars fan, so I'll have to take the maker's word for it that these are based on Luke's uniform whilst on planet Hoth. Obviously with an old school Adidas twist, along with contrast lacing and stripes, Luke Skywalker tongue details and 'toy' packaging.
Highly limited, they're yours for £99.
A Clockwork Orange book cover limited edition print by David Pelham
It is an instantly-recognisable image, with this A Clockwork Orange book cover limited edition print by David Pelham now available to buy in a limited edition.
It's available from new fine art company Wire Frame, which has reproduced the cover art of David Pelham, specifically his work on JG Ballard covers, but most famously of all, this cover for the original issue of Anthony Burgess' A Clockwork Orange. It's a cover that has never been bettered by subsequent reissues of the book.
Each print is on matt 310gsm fine art paper and uses pigment-based lightfast inks. The prints are individually signed and numbered by the artist and include an accompanying certificate of authenticity. Sized at 60 x 40cm, you can secure one for £275.

Adidas Superstar LUX trainers
Another reissue of the Adidas Superstar, with this going by the name of the Adidas Superstar LUX trainers.
It's essentially the same 1980s trainer, with this old school classic still packing that distinctive shell toe, but getting more of a premium finish than the standard issue. That means premium nu-buck uppers and premium contrasting leather 3-stripes, as well as limited numbers.
Premium also means more expensive than the standard too, £95 is the price.
